Most traditional and best-loved of all English gardens, the cottage garden is one of the most inspiring types of garden to create and to enjoy. The introduction to this compact and practical guide outlines the subject historically and carefully reviews some of the essential ingredients and important pointers in successfully adapting the cottage style to modern demands. A detailed alphabetical director presents some of the most characteristic cottage garden plants, with most illustrated in colour to enable them to be readily identified when choosing and purchasing. Each directory entry contains a description, comments on different varieties, suggestions for their successful cultivation and data on size, suitable soil conditions and ideal sites. A range of helpful checklists organizes plants according to special conditions and includes recommendations for plants ranging from ornamental vegetables to scented varieties, including many typical varieties of old-fashioned rose. A list of useful addresses is also included.
